First cast of the cyberpunk armor in flexible urethane! Super excited! Posting the whole build over on my patreon as I go: https://www.patreon.com/missmonster #missmonster #cyberpunk #missmonstermel https://www.instagram.com/p/Bq8fEWvFaGg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16bm9y283g8iy
Progress on my after hours project! Made a junk mold and junk cast of the clay sculpt. Separated the cast, sanded ( yuck) and primed… and now to sculpt a border so each piece can be sewn into the jacket. I will be posting the progress /materials of this project on my patreon! https://www.patreon.com/missmonster #cyberpunk #missmonster #missmonstermel https://www.instagram.com/p/Bqyeby4lcfq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=slrmzq2ewioa
CBC made a good documentary on adult ADHD and part of it really caught me off guard because i swear they repeated verbatim my life story for the past 3 years

My ADHD manifested in excellent in-class work. Excellent understanding in discussions. Excellent participation.
My ADHD manifested in piles of homework left undone until the last possible minute, while I stared at them, thinking; “I want to get these done. I understand the theory. It would take 10 minutes. I want to start, why can’t I start?”
My ADHD manifested in fantastic reading comprehension - nigh impenetrable focus on interesting topics the first time I’m reading about them.
My ADHD manifested in a complete inability to focus on reviews or re-reads, mind skittering sideways and away whenever anything was boring or repetitive. I sat down to study, my books open, my eyes on the text, and my brain clawing its way out the back of my head to focus on something else - anything else. Focus, focus! [No.]
My ADHD manifested in Articulating wings half-finished but still beautiful, in beautiful lineart and half-hearted coloring. In stories written passionately for days until I forgot it existed and never returned. In projects started and forgotten and started and forgotten a thousand times until my bins of project supplies piled up and my bank account shriveled down. No, it will be different this time - I LOVE this new thing. This new thing is my world, my destiny, my Everything. I CREATE and CREATE and CREATE and never FINISH.
My ADHD manifested in confusion and surprise as time slithered away, hours passing like minutes and minutes seeming endless by contrast. An inability to gauge how much time had passed, was left, a task would take. An inability to hold dates in my head, because time didn’t feel consistent or even real.
My ADHD manifested in watching someone talk and not understanding a word they said - literally hearing sounds and translating out only nonsense. In thoughts so loud I couldn’t speak coherently. In a conversation across the room shattering an idea I was trying to hold. It’s hard to think when you’re already thinking about everything around you.
uh
I’ve always been told if you meet ur doppelganger, you’ll want to kill them, bc there can’t be more than one of you, but, @fuckingconversations, I just want to hug you, is that ok?
bitch i got adhd lmao
Carbon dioxide has only one atom more than carbon monoxide just in case you think breathing is harmless
The funny thing is that, while this infographic is based on a complete and utter misunderstanding of how chemistry works, it’s not *entirely* wrong. It turns out that, at similarly equivalent therapeutic doses, methamphetamine can actually be just as helpful at treating ADHD as Adderall, for some people. There are even legal medications that are small doses of meth that exist for that purpose.
The problem with meth arises when you smoke it and/or take more than tiny amounts of it for recreational purposes (it is quite a bit stronger than dextroamphetamine, which is the main chemical in Adderall). Adderall also becomes dangerous, addictive, and bad for your health if it’s abused above prescription doses. So long as you’re taking amphetamines as prescribed for an actual medical condition under the care of a competent doctor, however, both chemicals can be used as extremely helpful medication, and neither chemical is exceptionally dangerous (and if you are extra sensitive/have bad reactions to amphetamines, then a competent doctor will stop prescribing them and try something else) (aka, it won’t be dangerous to your long-term health because you won’t be taking it for long).
Another fun thing is that the two molecules up there aren’t differentiated by whether they are the right-handed (dextro) or left-handed (levo) enantiomer of the molecules, aka which direction the methyl group that is on both molecules is directed (which in this case, would be either towards the table or up away from the table, and I am too lazy to carefully double-check which is which). That direction that the methyl group is pointing? The thing that doesn’t change the actual chemical makeup of the molecule at all? Has way more effect on the how the chemical reacts in your body than the extra methyl group in methamphetamine. In both molecules, the right-handed version is much more potent than the left-handed version. Levomethamphetamine is benign enough that the US at least allows it to be sold in over-the-counter nasal decongestants.
Science is much more fun than fear-mongering.
7 most adhd moods
–the Only Mood everyone else knows about: i wanna do THIS and THIS and THIS and THIS and THIS and–SQUIRREL
–galaxy brain: i was listening to the lecture but the prof said something that reminded me of something else and now i’m not sure how much time i was lost in thought
–the tutorial only comes in video format: i’m sorry, but you’ve thrown off the emperor’s groove *hurls product & its tutorial video into the sun*
–damn you hyperfocus: i went to bed intending to wake up and write but this morning i was possessed by a cleanliness spirit and spent the next 14 hours organizing the apartment
–i dont think u tried at all.jpg: did i seriously spend an entire free day refreshing twitter b/c i didn’t want to spend 10 minutes finishing my hw but wouldn’t let myself do anything else until i finished it???? (yes)
–patrick star: *unlocks phone* time to check the weather. *opens twitter* the weather. *opens messenger* the weather. *opens mobage game* the weather. *opens facebook* the weather. *opens twitter again* THE WEA–
–smells like depression: literally everything is too boring. i’m going back to sleep
“I’ll remember” is the ADHD demon talking. You won’t remember. Write it down.
bold of you to assume i’ll remember where i wrote it, or even that i wrote it
Visual exhaustion is another symptom of ADHD, which means that if we see something enough times (or we see enough instances of something), it fades into background noise and we fail to notice it. This is why a lot of ADHD people can stand living surrounded by mess/clutter, because it’s just visual background noise to us. We don’t even notice it anymore. So if we write something down and see the note stuck up somewhere a lot – or if we write a LOT of somethings down and have a lot of notes hanging around – then we’re even less likely to think of/remember the thing because it’s just part of the scenery now. ADHD is the Catch-22 of brains.
A very good thing to know about ADHD. Don’t fall into the trap.
A lot of folks in the comments are talking about writing on themselves or setting phone/calendar reminders. Your mileage may vary on those. You may also want to consider ways to set a habit of referring back to a planner or similar every day/hour.
To get those brain juices flowing, check out this Buzzfeed article on different ways folks with ADHD stay on top of things.
Readers, let us know if you have specific advice for this situation!
This is why sticky note reminders don’t work??

VISUAL BACKGROUND NOISE?!
THERE’S A WORD FOR IT?
Always reblog “THAT’S WHAT THAT IS???” posts. Chances are someone hasn’t seen it that needs to.
I have never identified more with something as a GM.
Dusk: Arena of Shadows
One of my co-workers has been making a new table top game with lots of depth and some trully gorgeous figures. These things are massive and so freaking detailed. The game is really fun too, with lots of different ways to play, easy to pickup, but still plenty of strategy. You won't play the same game twice. If you are in the market for something new for your friends at the table, give it a look and back this great project.
Dusk: Arena of Shadows
DM: Just so I have this moment clear in my mind: The Cleric and Paladin are debating whether taxidermy is tacky or not. The druid, still in Polar Bear shape, is ignoring the conversation so they can try to eat a hobgoblin corpse. And in the background of this, the two gnomes are stuffing the corpse of the warlock’s dead robot dog in to a bag of holding.
Players: Yeah, basically.
DM: I love Dungeons and Dragons.
the level of chaotic gay energy the McElroys are able to accurately convey in their queer characters despite being straight cisgender men is… genuinely astonishing and really should raise the bar for literally all other straight creators tbqh
like they really hit a commendable sweet spot of “I understand the gravity of representsting marginalized identities that are not my own” and “this is just another character” that really Works for me as a queer listener? because there is that sensitivity and making sure that identities are explicitly stated and treated with respect, while recognizing that it’s not really their place to tell a story About being queer. Griffin, Justin, and Travis all make clear that Lup, Taako, and Aubrey’s hardships do NOT stem from their identities, and it’s so refreshing because 1.) I don’t need background homo/transphobia in my fantasy, thanks and 2.) I especially don’t need those issues being used as plot pieces by straight dudes, thanks.
and that’s just like… never the case. it’s always “oh, she’s trans, and also the biggest badass in this game.” “yeah, he’s gay and dating the grim reaper, but also he’s about to turn into a t. rex so buckle up.” “she’s bi but more importantly she’s about to set a lot of things on fire.” it’s like… literally what I as a queer consumer want to see in my genre and the McElroys deliver like it’s no big.
Started teaching my first independent study today with a digipen student I’ve gotten to know over the last few years, @artsichow . Today we just talked about goals, process, and schedules. We also did some loose, messy pen sketching for brainstorming. Doing quick pen drawings are one the best ways to work out ideas by making mistakes, playing with proportions; and because it’s pen there’s no safety net! #penandink #teaching #artschool #coffeeshop #brainstorming #characterdesign #art #drawdrawdraw (at Walnut Street Coffee) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bne8AW4B_dI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mihw7vj39z7h
Here she is! What a delightful lady! A lot of work went into this character and I loved every minute of making her. This mask is sculpted in monster clay and cast in translucent urethane, membranes are silicone, goat/synthetic wig hair , neckpiece is craft foam/ thermoplastic , gauntlets are craft foam/thermoplastic sheets with cast urethane/epoxy clear claws.
This entire costume from the original sculpt to making the accessories has been documented over at my Patreon if you would like to see the creation process and learn how everything is made: https://www.patreon.com/missmonster
Almost finished with this sculpt! You can see the entire sculpt process by supporting my Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/missmonster This will be available as a DIY kit mid October-ish but for now I’m casting one up for myself to wear at @wastelandweekend 😎 #missmonster #missmonstermel #mask #patreon #monsterclay https://www.instagram.com/p/BnF6W5hBkff/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ry31a9ju50zs
How do you tell the difference between critique that is helpful and critique that isn't?
When you boil a critique down to its very core, you really end up with only three parts to it. Practically any critique can be broken down into something like this:
In my experience, the usefulness of a critique is inversely proportional to the ambiguity of the feature and reason blocks above. The less ambiguous the description of the feature or the reason is, the more useful it is to me, since I can figure out exactly what the issue is. Once I know exactly what the issue is, I can start coming up with solutions for it. This is really what’s important to us as devs - if the reasoning or the problem is ambiguous, it means we need to spend our time and energy investigating the problem first, before we can start brainstorming the solution.
